The Equine Functional Posture Podcast

The Equine Functional Posture Podcast was created for horse owners, trainers, vets, and bodyworkers like you — people who want to truly understand why their horse moves, feels, or performs the way they do.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by recurring soundness issues, inconsistent performance, unexplained tension, or a horse who just “doesn’t feel quite right,” this podcast is here to help you find answers.

Hosted by Dr. Raquel Butler, biomechanical medicine veterinarian, and Sophie Vandenberg, equine science graduate and osteopathic practitioner, each episode gives you practical, science-backed strategies to support your horse’s posture — and in turn, their health, comfort, and longevity.
